Saladin Armoured Car for Dust Warfare

April 2, 2021

To go along with my Saracens, I have some Saladins. These are armed with the Phaser weapons, I think 180W, because of course I play Allies. because the cast wasn’t great, and the 3d printed power generator for the phaser on the side of the turret was especially bad, I decided to do the rust effects thing. A shame I did that so long ago, and none of it was included in this, but coming back to it, from the green base coat after all the reds were complete is where we started.
From there I did the shading. I used Vallejo’s BlackGreen Model Air colour for this.

Then I did a highlight layer using Vallejo’s highligh colour #252, which is super subtle in the photo.

Then I did the final highlight with #225

Next I did the tires in black, and the phaser in gloss black

And then finally, jet exhaust over the gloss black. Now it’s ready for a scrub to wear away some of the paint, but it’s dinner time, so it’s a job for tomorrow.
